Passage:
"Alice was very glad to find her in such a pleasant temper, and thought to herself that perhaps it was only the pepper that had made her so savage when they met in the kitchen. 'When I'm a Duchess,' she said to herself (not in a very hopeful tone, though), 'I wo'n't have any pepper in my kitchen at all. Soup does very well without-Maybe it's always pepper that makes people hot-tempered," she went on, very much pleased at having found out a new kind of rule, "and vinegar that makes them sour-and camomile that makes them bitter- and-and barley-sugar and such things that make children sweet-tempered."

Comments and Response:
This further develops Alice's character as a little girl that does not know much about the world. She does not realize that ingredients in food do not turn people a certain way and that different situations and circumstances are what make people a certain way. In addition it is funny how she says that when she becomes "a Duchess." I find this funny because this is how little kids talk, they say that they will become this and that.
